Intro to User Experience & Interface Design

User experience design (UXD or UED) is the process of enhancing user satisfaction by improving the usability, accessibility, and pleasure provided in the interaction between the user and the product. User experience design encompasses traditional human computer interaction (HCI) design, and extends it by addressing all aspects of a product or service as perceived by users.

There are many key factors to understanding interaction design and how it can enable a pleasurable end user experience. It is well recognized [clarification needed] that building great user experience requires interaction design to play a pivotal role in helping define what works best for the users. High demand for improved user experiences and strong focus on the end-users have made interaction designers critical in conceptualizing design that matches user expectations and standards of the latest UI patterns and components. While working, interaction designers take several things in consideration.

• Creating the layout of the interface.
• Defining interaction patterns best suited in the context.
• Incorporating user needs collected during user research, into the designs.
• Features and information that are important to the user.
• Interface behavior like drag-drop, selections, and mouse over actions.
• Effectively communicating strengths of the system.
• Making the interface intuitive by building affordances.
• Maintaining consistency throughout the system.

I don’t believe you have to be better than everybody else. I believe you have to be better than you ever thought you could be.
